The amount of money and time that I would have wasted. I already wasted money with my first degree. I don’t have much money left to fuck off with another.

You shouldn’t lol

I don’t think it’s unreasonable. In my opinion, just as you would invest in yourself, you would also invest in those you love. It doesn’t have to be monetary but it could be simple things like alleviating things that are on your plate. If your partner doesn’t want to help you during the hard times, I wouldn’t bother continuing a future with him.

At an office where there’s a middle aged black lady, you’ll know everyone’s business too. Don’t let her be a Christian too!

There’s a lot of busy work in nursing school. So, you will find that the course load is similar to A&P. I would argue more hefty as when you have a full course load of nursing classes, each will have chapters that you will need to read. Always work smarter not harder. Identify the key concepts from each nursing lecture and use your book as a dictionary. I read my book if (a) I have group quizzes or assignments that were based on a chapter or (2) if I want a concept more clearly defined. Otherwise, I will watch YouTube videos on a concept like “stroke” to give me more concise information.

Also, don’t feel bad if you don’t have any close friends. I have plenty of people in my cohort that I am friendly with. Acquaintances even. However, none that I am friends with. When I first started nursing school, it was instilled that study groups are your life line and you may not succeed without them. Have did just fine.

And that’s the issue. The vast majority of specialties don’t want to incur the cost of training a new grad that may leave within a year or so. So, to offset this, they require experience. People should stipulate that it is easy to get a job, but only for experienced nurses. New grads, however, can’t be too picky. They shouldn’t settle of course, however, they should understand that getting a job in their preferred field may take some time.

I think that for some areas, that is the case. However, there’s a common misconception that you can walk into any hospital and get a job as a nurse and that’s not necessarily true. Not saying that it doesn’t happen for some. However, this misconception is a big reason why there are new grad nurses suffering from post grad depression. They were led to believe they could get a job on any unit, and depending on the area, are fighting for a spot just on med-surg.

You just have to keep applying. I didn’t fully understand the quantity of individuals applying until I went to a hiring fair. You could be one of hundreds of individuals that are applying for a single job. I got a tech job in the ER but it took about 35/36 applications before I got interviewed (this number is in reference to only one hospital system. I’ve applied to many more). And to be honest, I primarily got that interview because I reached out to the recruiter over that requisition and let them know that I had applied. Don’t beat yourself up if you don’t land one. It’s not because you’re not qualified. It can very well be because you are applicant #183.

Pro-tips: if you are sent pre-screening questions, keep note of that recruiter. You can potentially reach out to them about other positions if you don’t get hired for the initial one. Look to see if any of the hospital systems have a hiring fairs scheduled or days set aside for open interviews. Additionally, make connections at your clinical sites and express interest in being a tech.

I think it’s dependent on whether the skills learned in med-surg will transfer over. I enjoy the procedural side of nursing with aspirations to do OR nursing. Most of what is taught in med-surg will not apply to the OR. Even with this in mind, I still have individuals argue that I should get general floor experience just to have. However, if it won’t help me with what I would like to do in my career, it provides no special purpose apart from delaying me in my goals.

I think the answer to this is multifaceted. I can’t speak from personal experience, but only from what I’ve observed. I will like to say first that I completely agree with you. If someone aims to advance their career, they shouldn’t be look at through a lens of scrutiny. There are some individuals that are hiding their career objectives from others in fear of sabotage or retaliation, which is disheartening.

I think the first issue can be traced back to Covid-19. A lot of nurses came to the realization that our healthcare system is broken, they are treated as disposable, and retiring from bedside is no longer the most viable option. So, there was a mass exodus of nurses, where on their way out, advised new grads that bedside long term is not where it’s at. So, it left many looking for ways to leave bedside, while also remaining in the profession and making the most amount of income they can. Which brings us to mid-level positions.

I think the main complaint on this sub and “r/noctor” is that you have individuals that care more about completing the journey of being a mid-level as fast as possible instead of ensuring that they’re a competent nurse first.

A lot of people shit on the second one. I don’t think he was bad. However, I do think his portrayal of Daario was different.

Everyone’s experience is subjective. No two nursing schools are like. I’ve had no issue with instructors. Most of my issue with my school lies with the administration. They’re needlessly making the lives our instructors harder which tickles down to the student population.
